Fashionable cafes and shops line the streets, and an evening harbor-front stroll will no doubt include a serenade by street musicians and entertainers.

The town projects an artsy vibe, with a contemporary museum and the Brava Beach open air sculpture park, displaying large works in steel, concrete, wood, iron, and marble. The fascinating Casa Pueblo, home of artist Carlos Paez Vilaros, is a dazzling white fantasy on a hillside overlooking the town.
